In fact the sleep time is about 3 minute, so when you do arm the system and
you leave the premises the wireless detector ar not working till the sleep
time is off, this can be a maximum of 3 minute...
If you dont pass in front the detector for at least 3 minute before arming
the system the detector react instantly to movement and the panel will react
acordingly to the programing of the zone.
